the way fear effects fighters is more a fear of losing rather than the fight itself.. there is a lot on the line in these fights and when a fighter doesn't seem himself in a fight its because he fears losing. not so much that he fears a going toe to toe and getting a beatdown.

Again, its not fear of Silva. But fear of humiliation and losing. There's a difference.

If that's the case, wouldn't they go all out crazy and start swinging and pushing the pace? Okami didn't engage, even when he was clearly losing. Leites chilled on his back, even though he was clearly losing (and in an embarrassing manner, yet he continued to lie on his back). The list goes on...

Leites' title shot was some of the biggest bullshit I've ever seen. I don't blame him for trying to lure Anderson into his guard considering he had a snowballs chance in hell on the feet.
